I want to have a custom field in jira to validate the crucible review Id linked to any jira issue......do I need to create a plugin....or can be implemented simply by creating a custom field......plz reply

You can use the REST API to validate the details and get the associated JIRA Issue.

sir can u plaese give any sample example as how to use the Crucible REST API in my Jira plugin....do I need to write a full-fledged Rest Service to achieve this......

Isn't it a bit illogical trying to use Crucible Api inside Jira plugin? Are you not able to use Crucible REST services in your plugin to check the validity?

i have started the plugin development, but the problem is I am not able to use Crucible API's in jira plugin development(ReviewService interface)...as my requirement is to validate the crucible review id whether it is linked to a particular issue or not......

Guess you need to start from here https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/Custom+Field+Plugin+Module

No i want to have a custom field to validate a review Id....so do I need to write a plugin....if so...from where shd i start.....like which API I should use....plz help....

[Renjith Pillai]

I am still confused. If you are seeing an issue in Jira, the Review tab already shows all the linked Review Ids. Why do you need another custom field to do this job?

[Alok kumar Singh]

No actually my manager wants a scenario like this....If I select an issue from the planning board, after that there should be a custom field where if I put the review Id it should validate whether that particular issue is linked or not to the given review Id....

[Alok kumar Singh]

like i want to create a custom field which i can associtae with the workflow of jira issue.....and if one put the review id, it should validate if this review id relates to the particular issue.....I shd tell u I am a newbie....:-)

[Renjith Pillai]

Then you need write a plugin to do this validation. But again, I would like to ask, what is that you want to achieve? As Jira already supports preventing of closing of issues if a Crucible review is open for the linked review.

What kind of validation are you looking for?
